Our Thoughts:
I don't wear a lot of colored lipstick or gloss, mainly because it's too gummy or dries my lips out terribly. Makeup Academy has impressed me greatly with the fact that each of the different types of balms, glosses, and lip sticks are none of the things I've experienced before. Many name brands still produce colors that make me feel like I have ten pounds of make up on my lips. 

They have so many lovely colors to choose from. You can go bright or go natural, and they all look fantastic. I'm loving my Makeup Academy products and I know you will too! Why not purchase some for the holiday season? Spice up your lips for that holiday party, or grab some for stocking stuffers for your favorite lady! I will definitely remember to use this brand again next time I'm out looking for lip color!

You can find Makeup Academy exclusively at CVS.
